GPLOT and BOXPLOT Write a CGM File, but not SGPLOT or SGPANEL?

Hi, I'm trying to generate .cgm outputs for all my plots. I'm finding that When I use PROC GPLOT or PROC BOXPLOT, I'm able to generate .cgm files.

But when I use SGPLOT or SGPANEL, no .cgm file appears. There is no error message, but also no file. I can see the plot in the results tab of Enterprise.

It can't be the case that SGPLOT and SGPANEL can't do a .cgm file, can it? My processing statements are the same for both.

filename gout 'myfile.cgm';

goptions device = [cgmofml cgm cgmof97l] gsfname = gout gsfmode = replace; * tried all three devices, none work.

proc gspanel/gsplot]

Thanks for any insight. You all have been so helpful in the past week to me and it's much appreciated!

Hi @davehalltwp

I can't test it right now but did you try ODS GRAPHICS ?

Sample from that page should help you, hopefully.

Cheers,
Damo

Hi Damo,

Thanks. I decided just to go with the RTF output, since that will be the most easily integrated with the report we're working on. Thanks, I am going to check out that page future reference anyway!
